did you paint the edge where the tire is? the 2nd pic makes it look like its not really painted very well....

 

x2

 

i just did mine bronze and those dont look like gold, more bronze

 

I did, it was really sunny out and the flash was one
its just looks like that

 

looks like u missed a spot

 

looking pretty sweet

i'm thinking of powercoating my stockies, gold too =p but it'll be on my RS3 =)

 

ahah nice check my profile

 

sweettt
what color did you use? as in spray paint

 

It looks like you painted them with the tires still on...so I'm guessing that it's not just the flash as there are 'silver' spots on the far side of the wheel in picture 2 that wouldn't have been caused by the flash.

 

ah... the good old days of painted stock wheels. +1 for you for doing it yourself. check the ones in my profile. that's a bronze my friend... good job...

 

okay wow everyone including you should calm down
i didnt expect insults when i posted pics up damn.
it was my first time and it was freezing outside that day including windy
i was gonna do finishing touches later when the weather got warmer

 

I don;t see any insult... he is just telling you what he sees on the picture

 

Dude,

I'm as calm as can be.

You're the one that needs to lighten up...seems my post was just a simple observation and not an insult. Being that it was your first time it's decent work...and given that it's your car and you're happy with it then don't get your panties all up in a wad.

If it were my car I would either remove the tires to fully paint the lips or, as you mentioned, touch them up when it's warmer outside. Anytime you have tires mounted you'll need to make sure they're extra careful not to scratch them...which is why I would have spent the dosh to have them powdercoated, but that's just me.

Lastly, if you can't take criticism, constructive or otherwise, on a forum then you either shouldn't post or get some thicker skin.

 

okay maybe i did have my panties in a bunch
my bad
and i didnt have time for taking off tires, it was just an act of boredness to paint the wheels. i'll touch up one day and post new pics
thanks dudes

 

Ain't no thing man...and it's still your car. If you dig it then who cares...

 

word
